1.
Soccer goals will be pre-assembled on the ground, before being installed in the concrete footings. See Detail "A" for
assembly details.
If soccer goals are being used with outdoor ground sleeves, follow the installation instructions provided with the ground
sleeves (posts require ground sleeve anchor pins to be located in the 24" position). If soccer goals are being installed
permanently into concrete footings, proceed to Step No. 2.
2.
Locate and dig footings for sideframes. CAUTION – Contact your local utility companies to locate buried electrical,
gas and water lines before digging holes for footings. Also, check for overhead utilities. See Detail “C”.
3.
Raise the assembled soccer goal into position, with the bottom end of the posts suspended in the holes for the
footings. Support the goal assembly at the proper location and height, with 2x4’s, etc. The bottom of the crossbar
must be located at the exact dimension above the playing surface, with the face of the goal even with the outer edge
of the court line. See Details “B” and "C".
4.
After double-checking the position of the soccer goal, pour the concrete footings.
